What is Italian Pizza Flour?

At its core, Neapolitan pizza is a very basic dish: A good quality, bready base; bright, fresh tomatoes; rich, salty cheese; a sprinkling of fresh herbs. So simple! But homemade pizza making is an art that requires skill, precision and high-quality ingredients, especially in the crust. Pizza flour, sometimes referred to as tipo 00 flour, is high quality, finely milled wheat. Its fluffy, light texture is baby-powder soft and has a low absorption rate, meaning it requires less water than regular all-purpose flour. In turn, it produces the crispy-on-the-outside yet somehow perfectly chewy on the inside pizza crust that defines Italian pizza.
